The Media Line also points to a flier that was being circulated at Florida Atlantic University a few weeks ago. It was supposedly published by group calling itself the "Islamic-Arab Students Defense Committee," and it seems they have a problem:
Because we want to help build an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, devoid of confrontation and conflict, we are asking the FAU administration to: 1. Separate Jew students from Muslim students. Jews should be taught only by Jew professors and instructors. Muslim students should not be forced to take education from Jews. 2. Require Jew students to wear some sort of identifiction so Muslim students can avoid them socially. Indicate Jew professors in the university course listings.When we Arab-Muslim students came to America for study, we had no idea that we would be forced to mingle with Jew students and take instruction from Jew teachers. This is offensive to us since it is well known that the Jews are the most corrupt and violent people on Earth. We live in constant fear because of the threats of violence made by these Jews against Arab students.
There are more helpful suggestions, but you get the idea.
The University says the flier is a hoax, that there is no such organization on campus and that the Muslim Students Organization is "disgusted" by the message. The University believes that publicizing the flier only plays into the hands of hate mongers, and they've asked The Media Line to remove it from their website (which so far hasn't happened). The Anti-Defamation League agrees.
Should this turn out to be an actual hoax, I'll remove it from this site, as well. For now, though, I have my doubts. Someone did distribute this on campus even if it was not, as it would appear, a university organization. In the meantime, the reason for the lack of any public denunciation of the flier by either the University or the Muslim Students Organization is obviously their desire to, um, yeah, avoid playing into the hands of hate mongers by giving them publicity. Right.
